Stripping Shamima Begum of UK citizenship was unlawful, lawyers say

The removal of Shamima Begum's UK citizenship in 2019 was unlawful, her lawyers have argued.

The case is being heard at the Special Immigration Appeals Commission , which has similar standing to the High Court, and can hear national security evidence in secret if necessary. She was found by the Times newspaper in a Syrian refugee camp in 2019. Ms Sultana is believed to have been killed in a Russian air strike in Syria, according to her family's solicitor, and the whereabouts of Ms Abase are unknown.

They also argued the Home Office had not properly considered the effect taking away Ms Begum's citizenship might have on the wider Muslim community and other minorities in the UK. Mr Squires said for some people British citizenship is somehow "conditional on their good behaviour".

Lawyers don' like losing MUNNAY 🤣

It's totally wrong taking her citizenship away,Britain you suck on so many levels

Pity about her.

Lesson for others

Why

She shouldn't be allowed back to the UK or else we will be in big trouble.

So let’s make a law then…

Lawyers lie..goodbye😉😉

She a traitor

No it was not she went for the MEN !!!

Who cares, nation says.

Well she Dissed the hand that fed and raised her , and when she Dissed the stadium victims that was the last nail…sorry.

Well who would have thought that.

NO! She left to join ISIS! Sorry! What if it was reversed! Would there be compassion?

I'm fine with the stripping of citizenship illegal. (International law says you can't leave a person stateless) She is therefore a TRAITOR and should be tried as such (life imprisonment)

Shanina Begum helped the ISIS to strip people of their lives, would you want her to live next door to you ? - Perhaps the lawyers could put her up in their houses. Do you want her back in the UK ?

Yes it was.

Not familiar with this news here in America. But will look into.

Oh here we go. She knew exactly what she was doing when she went to fight for the enemy ShamimaBegum

Such a vague title, 'Layers say'.

No, it absolutely wasnt. It can be stripped for terrorism offences. She had criminal responsability and capacity. Enough whining!

Who is funding this perpetual middle finger to our laws?

Illegal immigrants coming to this country is unlawful too. But still they come.

i give up..

Lucky for her she not inSineria with brittany Grober

No it wasn’t has she was a poster girl for isis and if she was trafficked she would not be doing any interview with anyone she’s a liar

Tell the lawyers who say it was unlawful to syrip Begum of UK citizenship to go on the front line to fight terrorist or visit families who lost people who were killed by terrorists

I wish I cared, but I don't.

We have become a country that defends terrorists!!!

Joining Isis ,bombing& beheading people is also unlawful. Let her suffer the consequences of her actions.

Strip the lawyers citizenship aswell

If she returns I think she will be stripped of much more than the citizenship she should never have had in the first place.

Unlawful which side are you on !!!!! She old enough to go and shag at her age !!! Did her family do something about that I guess no and they knew she gone for it

Oh give me a break . She wants us to have our heads chopped off for heavens sake .

Keep her out of England

Lol here we go. Just give her passport back ffs because all this tough talks laughable. Give her a load of compo and set her up for life , we all know that’s the outcome.

She can come back in a body bag and don't mean that kind of death shroud uniform Islamic women have to wear... 🕋💩🕋💩

She must never be allowed to return to this country

Who exactly is paying for her saintly lawyers. It's not Begum I'm sure.

Other lawyers said it wasn't. so whos right. Not hers.

Who cares! Let her be tried under shariah law!

Here we go.. back to the UK.. paid for by the tax payer.. who she hates because we western 😩 unbelievable

That would be her lawyers, of course.. hardly a surprise, nor worthy of a headline that at first glance could be taken as fact.

By keeping out terrorists we are potentially saving lives!

Bad laws should be ignored and changed.

No one forced her, no matter how misguided.

But it appeals to the racists in England so the government will continue to treat her badly ShamimaBegum

Her taxpayer funded lawyers would soon be changed if they wanted to say she no longer was a U.K. citizen!

Only saying that because they can make thousands of pounds she’s a Terrorist

How many school girls don't flinch at the thought of beheading people and are happy to sew kids into suicide bomb vests?

of course it was

Let her rot

BBC literally spanking it’s own monkey thinking of having this walking liability back in the UK

Uk lawyers work against us

Notice she's switched to western clothing

Serves her right

She should stay where she is. UK has put citizens in jail for life for crimes that were 9 years old!!! Her excuse of 15 non sense. Trafficed, non sense, the majority of arranged marriages should be illegal and construed as trafficing if this were true.

She is a terrorist. No if no buts. She should be lest to rot

So she was groomed WTF was she looking at in the first place to be groomed.

Twoddle lol

You made your bed now stay in it

I bet these lawyers are running their hands together defending her , 💰💰.she doesn't look like she having a hard time overthere ...being funded by British media no doubt

Being a terrorist is unlawful as well

Rubbish grubby lawyers and media people trying to white wash her.

Click bait! Just one half of the story. You should be better than this bbcnews

Wrong.

If Britain was more 'unlawful' we'd be able to strip tens of thousands of people of their citizenships who shouldn't be here.

Agree, we should have executed her

Bore off

/ Not only Unlawful but also Unjust + Inhumane!!!

Unlawful? It was undoubtedly deserved! She knew exactly what she was doing! You want to live by that isis sword? You can bloody well die by it as well!

She had potential and that was 6aken away from her as well. Why, she could have become PM, who knows.

Best thing they ever did she made her bed !

Well the lawyers will say anything if they paid enough. We know they don’t have a conscience. Money grabbing vultures

What she supported was unlawful and horrific

Supporting ISIS while they butchered people was what then?

Foreign lawyers that is. Forget about her this is nothing to do with us ffs

No

Really! Shocked 😮 If she was white and Christian would of it happen I doubt it ! Brexit Immigration

Didn't she at tge beginning of the whole thing denounce her British citizenship on a video when her husband was still alive? Or was this another girl?

Terrorist b...

No

Sorry but she was so happy skipping onto that plane. I did not see her being dragged onto it. She sew bullet proof vests on terrorists. She exploited herself. Unforgivable and too risky to let her back into the country after who she’s been with her mindset could be dangerous

But the correct thing to do

Yes ! Shouldn’t be allowed back in our country ….. your all saying give her a chance but yet when something bad happens you will say why did we let her back in !! Cant win ! Either way I personally think she made her bed now lie in it ….. we don’t welcome terrorist simple as!

She was literally a terrorist. Citizenship is ultimately a privilege, not a right. No 'international law' can make that otherwise nor be enforced.

She did it herself.

Take the hint no one wants you

She was used then threw away .

Look at the BBC wankers trying to bring their favourite Muslim home!! DefundtheBBC

Canada should take her. Wasn't it Canadian intel agent that trafficked her to Syria?

Loophole lawyers.

I'll wait on a judge saying it.

Click bait. You should have said that Begum’s lawyers said that & U.K. Gov said opposite & we wouldn’t need to read your article

The then interior minister had the right to strip the terrorist Muslim woman's British citizenship.This is not human trafficking. And Begum was not as innocent as lawyers and supporters said. It is a national security issue,so she must be deported from the UK as soon as possible.

Why is so much focus on her and not the british victims of isis. Its always the innocent victims and their surviving relatives who are disrespected and forgotten about.

British lawyers bringing the country to hell.

Let her rot.

No country can make its citizen stateless, this beyond politics or law, this is about basic right of a person. All persons belong to his/her homeland.

Money chasing lawyers

The killing of UK soldiers is unlawful. The beheading of human beings is unlawful. Talk about picking and choosing your human rights.

Bonkers

Terrorist

Socialist_Doggy I completely understand the argument for her citizenship being revoked, but I can’t get over the fact that she was 15 and was helped to get “into ISIS” by a Canadian spy.

She was a terrorist scum, end of!!

If she was a major threat then we should have jailed her in our country. She was a child lured to a foreign country, stripping her citizenship was a bizarre move

Is that her lawyers,or just lawyers in general.?

A terrorist plain and simple no other excuse for what she did

Wise up. Leave her where she is. She chose her team and has nothing to offer our country.

And there will be another lawyer who says the opposite, that's how they make money and even when they're proven wrong they still get paid. P.S. Joining ISIS and being party to the atrocities that can't be mentioned here is unlawful I say.

is Mrs Blair her lawyer

Her mother said she ran away…the lawyers are living in another world?

So was what she did. Traitors were shot

Well what a shock that was🤬🤬🤬🤬lawyers are officially in charge of the UK now

Might as well make her a duchess all together just to appease the fuc*ing snowflakes!

Her lawyers can shut up. The woman is pure evil.

She knew what she was doing. Let's hope she is never allowed back to the UK.

What did the lawyers say about her supporting beheadings of infidels and also not helping in exposing the men behind it?¿?

No it wasn't keep her out

Choosing to join isis is unlawful

It's to risky bringing her hear!

Nope! UK population says!

This is bull 💩 leave her we’re she is, she’s nothing but a vile Terrorist. People are forgetting she practically backed the Manchester bombing, in her interview. Groomed my Ass

English people up in arms about kids being groomed by Asian gangs, Lexley Lennon and his lot. Here’s a girl groomed and it’s a case of “Fcuk her”, could it be those that are against her are maybe racist? And actually don’t even care about the innocents groomed at all?

BBC...British biased corporation

No excuses she stays out, any other county would say no but UK is full of do do Gooders

What did she actually do whilst she was there? Also if she committed a crime then put her on trial and jail her. It makes no sense to strip someone of their nationality.

What must the so called trafficker promised her( 15 yrs) old girl that will make her to leave her school, family and friends to travel to isis in Syria? I’m just wandering anyway.

Of course it was… a child groomed but her 🤷🏽‍♀️… shameful

Breeding future little terrorists is unlawful

The UK is a rogue state that commits illegal acts against its own citizens. it is against international law to strip a person of their citizenship if it leaves them stateless. all other considerations are moot

Odd piece. Of course that's what her lawyers were going to say. However it is the judge who decides, hence the name

Maybe she was 'groomed' though I'm sceptical. Not worth the risk giving one person a second chance, it may (literally) blow up in our faces.

Shamima Begum is a victim. People are incredulous that a teenager can be fooled by such vicious criminals. Yet millions of Americans have been taken in by absurd Q Anon conspiracies. And how many Russians believe that Ukraine is a Nazi state?

hang on hang on unlawful ,,, Prince Harry stripped of titles ,,hang on this man served and protected this country ,,,she went of to join terrorists who destroy our and other countries i for 1 say she should be banned form ever coming to the UK

Grooming is the last throw of the dice by her lawyers. I feel that we as a country should be allowed to strip any person of they citizenship if we feel other citizens are at risk. I think she is due to past history.

Don't care. She made her bed so lie in it.

so was doing waht she did, cant have it both ways

ah well if a lawyer says it, it must be true. We cant argue with lawyers - the beacons of morality

All those that ever went there either to fight or become sex toys deserve r we everything that happens to them. Sorry but they knew these people were fighting against us so that makes them either a traitor or a criminal against the country

No fucking way. If she keeps her citizenship then trouble will come for her

It is lawful.

Why is this still a case!!! We should be asking for the dead penalty not for a new passport! Weak country we are

Qatar is clear.

I don't care as I thought you all would like to know, I'm being sarcastic, it's just funny how many on here need to write I don't care if not move on

Her lawyers would say that. BBC supporting terrorists

Yeah right, someone in the media fancies giving this one some heat 🙄

What rubbish. Plenty more to strip citizenship from.

Lawyers are the worst scum

Let her fucking rot

which is correct, and the government casually stripping its own citizens of citizenship should worry everyone.

Which ruddy Government lawyer drafted this legislation? Should have been tighter than a mouse's nostril. I hear this a lot..quality of Govt drafting is poor and getting worse.

How do we know this isn’t a ploy to get in the country and commit crimes here? And get husband here? If her family went back to Bangladesh why does she need to be here?

'her lawyers say' Typical misleading BBC headline

You reap what you sow. She should be grateful they only stripped her citizenship only

Bollocks say the rest of us..

Hwfg

Groomed at 13 Trafficked at 15 If she was white she definitely would have been seen as a victim As a Sunni Muslim the Wahhabi devils of ISIS are my No1 enemy but this girl is a innocent victim

The BBC is really milking this story, its as if they have an Agenda for an ISIS bride, who knew what she was doing, who was happy to see a kiddys concert in Manchester blown up, wasn't bothered by heads in a bucket and the liberals claim she is a victim. No she isnt.

She left the country with two other girls she was not forced she new exactly what she was doing it wasn’t until Islamic state was getting there ass kick she made up these stories

“lawyers say” Would they be her lawyers by any chance 🤔 Also, the argument being made is ‘failure to adequately consider trafficking’ not that she unequivocally was trafficked

And how much are the lawyers getting payed ..treasonous..she whent and fought against her country's monarchy

Nope. No it wasn’t. She made her bed, she can lie in it. Or just lie… either works for her, apparently.

We should look after our national treasures. Not strip them of their citizenships.

Boo Hoo ,

‘Peter Sutcliffe is innocent, lawyers say’

A truly civilized country would bring her back and be tried in a court of law.

But the right thing

I'm struggling to find a single fuck to give

Bbc support terrorists

Time for a reaper drone...
